/**
 * @file   lltreeiterators.h
 * @author Nat Goodspeed
 * @date   2008-08-19
 * @brief  This file defines iterators useful for traversing arbitrary node
 *         classes, potentially polymorphic, linked into strict tree
 *         structures.
 *
 *         Dereferencing any one of these iterators actually yields a @em
 *         pointer to the node in question. For example, given an
 *         LLLinkedIter<MyNode> <tt>li</tt>, <tt>*li</tt> gets you a pointer
 *         to MyNode, and <tt>**li</tt> gets you the MyNode instance itself.
 *         More commonly, instead of writing <tt>li->member</tt>, you write
 *         <tt>(*li)->member</tt> -- as you would if you were traversing an
 *         STL container of MyNode pointers.
 *
 *         It would certainly be possible to build these iterators so that
 *         <tt>*iterator</tt> would return a reference to the node itself
 *         rather than a pointer to the node, and for many purposes it would
 *         even be more convenient. However, that would be insufficiently
 *         flexible. If you want to use an iterator range to (e.g.) initialize
 *         a std::vector collecting results -- you rarely want to actually @em
 *         copy the nodes in question. You're much more likely to want to copy
 *         <i>pointers to</i> the traversed nodes. Hence these iterators
 *         produce pointers.
 *
 *         Though you specify the actual NODE class as the template parameter,
 *         these iterators internally use LLPtrTo<> to discover whether to
 *         store and return an LLPointer<NODE> or a simple NODE*.
 *
 *         By strict tree structures, we mean that each child must have
 *         exactly one parent. This forbids a child claiming any ancestor as a
 *         child of its own. Child nodes with multiple parents will be visited
 *         once for each parent. Cycles in the graph will result in either an
 *         infinite loop or an out-of-memory crash. You Have Been Warned.
